MEMORANDUM

DATE:
SUBJECT:
Airport Manager Mary Bondurant and Kenai Airport Commission
Elizabeth Appleby, City Planner
December 30 , 2019
Action Approval for Lease Assignment from Kenai Fabric Center, Inc.
to SOAR International Ministries, Inc. located at 105 and 115 North
Willow Street (Lots 2 and 3, Block 5, G.A.A. Subd. No. 1 Amended)
On behalf of the Kenai Fabric Center, Inc., Wendy McGahan has submitted a request to the City
to assign the Lease of Airport Lands to SOAR International Ministries, Inc. (SOAR). The Kenai
Fabric Center leases the properties at 105 and 115 North Willow Street described as Lots 2 and
3, Block 5, General Aviation Apron Subdivision No. 1 Amended . Both parcels are listed on one
lease. A map of the parcels is attached to this memorandum .
The lease was assigned to the Kenai Fabric Center in 2004. The original lease dates back to
1976 . The stated use on the lease is , "commercial business establishment and aviation services
as per General Aviation Apron Subdivision covenants". The lease term extends through June of
2031 . Since 2015 , the annual lease rate has been $6 ,211 .52 . The lease rate will be redetermined
in 2020 and the parcels are part of the group being appraised a City contractor in order to set new
lease rates.
The Kenai Fabric Center is in compliance with the terms of the existing lease . SOAR recently
assigned their three leases to Schilling Rentals , LLC. SOAR has an application approved by City
Council to lease another City lot and is working to complete the subdivision of the parcel prior to
the s igning of the lease.
The assignment will not constitute approval for a change in use. After assignment of the existing
lease, SOAR could request City Council consideration for a use change with input from the Airport
Commission , such as amending the lease purpose to be for an aircraft hangar and parking . At
that time, it is recommended the City and SOAR discuss a replat of the two existing lots into one
lot as the property line currently runs through the ex isting structure covering both lots . City
Administration recommends assigning the lease lots as they are currently platted .

Action Approval for Lease Assignment from Kenai Fabric Center, Inc. to SOAR
The parcel is within the Airport Light Industrial (ALI) Zone. Pursuant to KMC 14.20.065, the
purpose of the ALI Zone is to protect the viability of the Kenai Municipal Airport as a significant
resource to the community by encouraging compatible land uses and reducing hazards that
may endanger the lives and property of the public and aviation users . SOAR would continue the
current compatible use of the parcel until applying for amendment to construct a hangar.
The Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan outlines goals , objectives , and action items for
the City, including this one pertaining to the Kenai Municipal Airport :
• Objective T-1: Support future development near or adjacent to the airport when such
development is in alignment with the Kenai Municipal Airport's primary mission, "To be
the commercial air transportation gateway to the Kenai Peninsula Borough and Cook
Inlet."
The proposed use by SOAR complies with the Imagine Kenai 2030 Comprehensive Plan in that
it supports development on lease lots and the development is in alignment with the Kenai
Municipal Airport's marketing strategy.
The Airport Land Use Plan was developed to identify the highest and best uses of Kenai
Municipal Airport land. The Airport Land Use Plan discusses leasing land and enhancing
opportunities for local economic development. The proposed use by SOAR would continue the
existing use on the parcel , with the expected construction of a hangar on the property after the
assignment and a subsequent lease amendment.
Does the Airport Commission recommend the assignment of the lease of Airport lands
from the Kenai Fabric Center, Inc. to SOAR International Ministries, Inc.? The City Council
will be notified of the Airport Commission's decision as part of their evaluation of the lease
assignment application . The Airport Commission makes their decisions on lease applications
based on the proposed development's compliance with the Airport Land Use Plan, Airport
Layout Plan , Federal Aviation Administration regulations, Airport Master Plan , Airport
Improvement Program grant assurances, and Airport operations .
Thank you for your consideration .
